How we work

Our clients come to us because we understand their world, work alongside their senior teams, and deliver results aligned with their strategic goals — not just column inches.

Our campaigns regularly achieve national and sector media coverage, alongside meaningful audience engagement. We are trusted to advise on sensitive and high-profile matters, and to help align internal and external messaging in partnership with in-house teams.

Many of our client relationships span many years — some more than two decades. We see that as the best measure of trust and value.

Our values and approach are set out in the Reeves Manifesto, which informs everything we do — from client relationships to campaign delivery.

Professional standards and values

We operate to high standards of professionalism, inclusion and workplace excellence, recognised as a PRCA Workplace Champion. Our business is also aligned with B Corp principles, which are embedded in the way we work — focusing on responsibility, sustainability and transparency.

Common questions about working with Reeves

What does Reeves do?
Reeves is a national public relations and strategic communications consultancy, based in Birmingham. We help organisations handle media interest, explain complex issues, manage reputation, produce clear content, run social media activity and create film and video content for the audiences that matter to them.

Is Reeves a Birmingham PR agency?
Reeves is based in Birmingham and has strong West Midlands roots, but most of its work is national. The consultancy also has a presence in Newcastle upon Tyne and experience across national and pan-European briefs.

Does Reeves work nationally?
Yes. Reeves has long experience of supporting clients operating across the UK, including national healthcare, workforce, manufacturing, engineering and automotive briefs. Its experience includes work for a 364-branch automotive network and pan-European communications activity run from Brussels.

How is Reeves different from a typical PR agency?
Reeves is built around judgement, press office experience and senior communications advice, with delivery across writing, social media, film and content production. We are often brought in when organisations need careful handling, clear thinking and communications that will stand up to scrutiny.

Is Reeves a campaign agency?
Campaigns are part of our work, but Reeves is not a campaign factory. Much of our value comes from sustained press office support, media handling, reputation management, stakeholder messaging, social media, filmed content and advice to senior teams.

What kind of organisations use Reeves?
Reeves works with organisations that need communications handled carefully and professionally. That includes schools and multi-academy trusts, healthcare and public service providers, workforce businesses, manufacturers, engineering companies, built environment businesses, civic organisations, hospitality businesses and organisations facing public or media scrutiny.

Does Reeves act as an external press office?
Yes. Press office work is central to Reeves. We handle media enquiries, develop stories, write press releases, brief spokespeople, manage journalist relationships and keep communications activity moving day to day.

Does Reeves handle crisis communications?
Yes. Reeves supports organisations during sensitive or high-pressure situations, including media scrutiny, reputational issues, employment matters, allegations of wrongdoing, service disruption, serious incidents and difficult public announcements. The focus is on accuracy, proportion, pace and long-term credibility.

What happens if a situation needs specialist crisis or political support?
Reeves is experienced in handling serious reputational issues, but also knows when a situation needs additional specialist counsel. Where appropriate, we can draw on senior national and international crisis communications expertise and support engagement with senior policy and political audiences.

Does Reeves produce film and video content?
Yes. Reeves produces interview-led films, explainers, case studies, campaign films, event films, leadership messages and social media video. Film is treated as part of the communications strategy, not as a separate production exercise.

Does Reeves manage social media?
Yes. Reeves creates and manages social media content for organisations that need a consistent, credible public presence. Social media is treated as a reputational channel, linked to press office activity, campaigns, stakeholder communications, video and wider content.

What makes Reeves different from a digital marketing agency?
Reeves is not built around paid advertising, SEO campaigns, influencer activity or generic digital content. Our work is based on editorial judgement, media understanding, strategic advice, social media, film, written content and clear communications across public, professional and stakeholder audiences.

Why do clients use Reeves on a retained basis?
Clients use Reeves because communications rarely sit neatly inside one project. Press enquiries, announcements, reputational risks, social media, leadership messaging, film, video and content often need to be handled together, with consistent judgement and pace.

Does Reeves work with civic, public and policy-facing organisations?
Yes. Reeves has long experience of working with organisations where communications sit close to public life, civic responsibility, policy interest or community impact. That understanding helps when messages need to be clear, careful and credible.

What values shape the way Reeves works?
Reeves places importance on responsible business, inclusion, strong workplace culture and long-term client relationships. The consultancy is a PRCA Workplace Champion, reflecting its commitment to creating a professional, supportive and well-run place to work.

Who usually works directly with Reeves?
Reeves usually works with chief executives, senior leadership teams, communications leads, marketing teams, operational leaders and boards. The common factor is that the message, audience or situation matters.
